This is a twist on regular French toast and a new favorite at our house.

Ingredients for 12 servings

• 2 tbsp oil
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp baking powder
• .5 tsp salt
• 1 tsp sugar
• .75 tsp ground cinnamon
• .5 tsp vanilla extract
• .5 tsp maple flavoring
• 12 slices Texas toast bread

Steps

1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and brush on oil to coat the entire skillet. Whisk together all dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, mix together milk, eggs, and flavorings. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stir until combined.
2. Pour batter into an 8 x 8 square baking dish and dip single pieces of bread into the batter, flipping to coat both sides. This batter only coats the bread and will not soak into the bread like regular French toast. Place immediately on the hot skillet. Flip when golden brown and brown the other side. Mix batter in between batches of dipping bread so the flour doesn't settle to the bottom of the dish.
